Zion

It was a beautiful day at Zion. We have been Eastering in Zion since before my father was born. The same spot, same day and mostly the same food. Over the years we have come to feel a sense of ownership over the park. It is like our back yard. The first photo is our family at the grotto picnic area. The second a type of desert oak, I forgot the name. The last photo is of lichen; it is a indication of good air quality.

Why Butterfly?

Butterflies are known for their unusual life cycle that includes a spectacular metamorphosis from caterpillar to a colorful winged adult. They have an erratic yet graceful flight pattern that attracts attention when they pass. The Ancient Greek word for butterfly is psȳchē, which means soul. I particularly admire their symmetry and kaleidoscope of colors.
